[Saba Sports News] Ahead of the Premier League match against Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool manager Arne Slot denied that Darwin Nunez was excluded from the starting lineup due to concerns about avoiding payment of contract-related clauses. Previous media reports claimed that if Nunez started another game, Liverpool would have to pay Benfica €5 million. In response to this, Slot said: “Do you always believe everything you read in the media? I don’t, sometimes maybe you should, but sometimes it’s best not to believe everything reported about players. For me, this is all unheard of. I would be the last person for Richard Hughes to tell me that if I play Nunez, we’ll lose how much money. He would never say that; he never interferes with team decisions.” Media messages vary between fact and fiction, but if a journalist reports something, we must view it objectively. Notably, Nunez posted a message on social media earlier, saying, “No wonder I haven’t played more often; the last time I played in the Premier League went well, then suddenly…” Nunez quickly deleted the post, but screenshots were captured and spread by Liverpool fans. What do Liverpool supporters think of this?
